Friday I asked the Tigers to make a statement and man did they. Five straight wins for our beloved Bengals from the Motor City. Friday and Saturday were good strong wins, Sunday was a win for the ages. A five run tenth inning capped off by a Cabrera walk off into the bullpen.
Last night we were treated to Verlander putting on a clinic with 14 k's over the hated Bronx Bombers, with Porcello on the mound tonight we will need strong starts from Fister and Sanchez to take this series. After the four game series ends, the Tigers head down to the Texas heat.
Despite the five game streak the Tigs only have managed to shave a game off of the Sox division lead. Treading water this week will keep the Tigers close enough to catch the Sox in the next few weeks.
Ryan Raburn who is the local sports talk radios whipping boy is now on the d.l, Andy Dirks is back and playing well, and Cabrera and Fielder are doing what they are paid to do. If the starting pitching holds up we could just have baseball at Comerica Park in October.
